This morning's devotional was a great reminder for me. The Book of 2 Corinthians 4: 18 tells us to focus on what is eternal, not on what is temporary. I have lots of wants in life. My heart's desires are quite many but only few were being granted. This somehow frustrates me a little. However, I realized that all my frustrations are futile. It only added to my stress. I admit, I was quite disoriented once again with my goals in life. I am aiming the wrong focus that is why it causes me lots of frustrations in life.
Lately, my hubby went through some "ordeal". And all I could do is just to stand by him. I could not lift a finger unto him because I am partly to be blamed with what happened to him. Now I am trying to focus on the good side in all that happened to him and that is he could now have all day to spend time with our baby. By just merely thinking about it, I love the idea of seeing my hubby and my son establishing a great bond with each other. He somehow express his apprehensions about our status and he asked me if we could make it. Of course, I should be positive with all things though deep inside I am quite in doubt but I told him that with God's help, we can make it. We also discuss about meeting both ends with our monthly expenses. I am hopeful that what we've been through right now will have a positive impact in the end.
Lot of things were running through my mind right now. I have lots of plans and I don't know as to what plans will work perfectly well. Still, God is in control of everything. Once again, I have to be firm with what I believe because God is never mistaken.
I still believe that God prepared a better future ahead for me and for my family. All I need to do is to aim the right focus.
Amen.

Nice post.
I wish more people realized how this life is so temporary but we have eternal life in Christ Jesus. We need to make the most of each day and bonding with our children is a high priority to be sure.
